Many of the Republican Town Committees &/or Candidates across the state are having Election Night Parties at their Head Quarters or at one of the local restaurants in the area
If you do not live in an are where there is going to be an election night party consider having one for your family & friends to watch the results come in together
There was supposed to be a poll for the CT GOP 1st Congressional Debate that was held on Wed Dec 6th 2017 in Windsor CT at the Windsor Public High School
The poll was not widely accessible nor was it available for everyone that watched the debate in person or via livestream to be able to vote because it was a vote by texting to a tele-code which is not available (accessible) on all cellphones nor does it take into consideration the many people who do not wish to get text messages from the CT GOP or it’s candidates which that type of polling opens up anyone voting to
Below is a proper poll which lists all of the currently known candidates on the CT GOP possible Convention ticket in May some are still in the Exploratory phase & others are Declared but did not attend the debate because they had not met the fundraising requirement that the chairman had set of $75,000.00 so they had their own events either prior or during via fabcebook live.
Cast your vote for any of the candidates or write in your own CT GOP candidate
Be sure to share the poll on your social media networks
The poll will close on Jan 9th since the next CT GOP Debate will be held on Jan 10th
The CT GOP is trying something new this election season with the governorship at stake…
For the first time they had on Facebook Live streaming on both the Fox61 & CT GOP pages the video streaming of some of their candidates debating.
First Congressional District Governor Candidate Debate at the Windsor Public High School 6pm to 9pm .
Only a few of the candidates were up on stage because they met the fundraising qualifications set by the party chairman. My understanding is that $75,000.00 minimum had to have been raised to be invited to the debate. There is a combination of both Declared as well as those who only have Exploratory Committees.
Declared Governor Candidate Joe Visconti who did not meet the fundraising qualifications was doing a competing Live Stream on his facebook page so that his critique of the candidates, their answers and some rebuttal to the debate questions – this is similar to what Jill Stein did back in 2016 when she was excluded from the debates.
Below is the video of the debate so that you can watch.
The CT GOP Chairman had a private poll after the debate which the results are being touted on the CT GOP facebook page but sadly the wider republican voting body was not privy to that poll which is quite disappointing. I hope that a better for CT GOP members poll will be emailed out for a true measure of who are the debate winners.

“Write In Candidate” or how a draft campaign works
But I am going to
Write in Paul Panos
for the Windsor Board of Ed
Why you ask would I write in a candidate that dropped off the ballot… because I know that he cares about the education of our children and he is willing to fight for the wiser spending of our tax dollars at the Windsor public school system…
He was initially on the ballot but he stepped down because he had surgery that was preventing him from the campaigning around the town that needed to be done.
I’m writing in Paul Panos for Board of Ed
because I think that if enough of us do write him in,
now that he’s feeling better and able to get around that
he will agree to serve for another term!
Help me test my theory and
Write in Paul Panos for Board of Ed on Nov 7th 2017!
